After reading ED...

...more specifically the articles on Lulz-cows, I have decided at any attention-whoring fool who posts something along the lines of 'Lol I'm so crazy!!!' or 'I have proven that I am officially insane!'  deserves to be shot in the fucking head with a captive bolt pistol.

Now, after that nice rant, I suppose it's time for a proper update on my life.

The play has now finished, in fact it finished some weeks ago, and I was just too apathetic to really give it a proper post. it was fun in the main part, but a few things happened that have marred my memory of what was otherwise a good time (which I will not go into for now for personal reasons) and has seriously put me off socializing, especially with the opposite sex ( sounds frigid i know, but I really don't care at the moment). I should be receiving a picture disc and a DVD sometime soon in the post, both of which I may possibly post up here.

The next blow came from work. when I asked for 2 weeks off for the show, it was on the condition that one of my shifts was given to the new staff, which I grudgingly accepted. However, when I came back from my show the next week, I found that all but one of my shifts, reducing me to a measly £13 a week ($25 for my American friends) which, down from £39/$76 is rather a harsh blow. Seeing as the average single disc DVD is £20/$39 you can see the predicament i am now in. So i wondered down to the Job center to try again for income support. Unfortunately, instead of offering me Income support which they did last year, I was told rather coldly that I could only apply for Incapacity benefits under grounds of mental health, meaning I must A, get another sick not from my GP, and B, I must cease all work and quit my job, which, although something do not want to do, considering my current opinion of my boss and some of my coworkers, is something I might have to do.
Another factor in my overall shittiness of life is the fact that while my medication is working well, my anxiety attacks are becomign worse and my agoraphobia has reached new levels of intensity.  At this point in time, just taking the ten minute walk to the shops leaves me jittery over the rest of the day, and taking a trip on a crowded bus is extremely traumatic.

Still, to be optimistic, Final Fantasy XII is coming out in two weeks time today and that will save me from boredom and the lonliness of being Agoraphobic, and in the meantime I have plenty of time for writing.

speaking of which, 79,488 words and counting.
